Eric Clapton – My Father's Eyes Lyrics 20 years ago
Clapton wrote this song (along with "Tears in Heaven") in memory of his son, who died after falling out of their apartment's window.

"I never met my father," Mr. Clapton told his biographer in 1985. "And I realized that the closest I ever came to looking into my father's eyes was when I looked into my son's eyes." -- from an interview in The Ottawa Citizen
